HUH!?! Forgive the tangent, as this is getting far off-topic, but your statement couldn't be more wrong...but not only in this case, where such liberal ideology has been strongly supported by the people, but in most anything else...was Social Security enacted by the courts? Was the Civil Rights Act made by the courts? Were Public Schools built by the courts? Did the courts put gay marriage amendments on the ballots?
Of course liberal ideals have been defended in the courts, and rights protected by the courts when it was brought to the courts' attention that those rights were being violated, but this is all sourced in law, most primarily in the Constitution itself.
